Other Information
”My parents tell me that I said I wanted to be a doctor from the time I was a small child. I have always been fascinated with the science of medicine, but nothing is more important to me as a doctor than the relationships that I build with patients. It was in my first year of internal medicine residency training that I learned that I was to dedicate my life’s work to the treatment and care of cancer patients in fighting this terrible disease.

My goal is to offer patients state-of-the-art treatments in a safe and caring environment. It is the courage and resolution of my patients that inspires me every day to provide the best medical care possible. I want my patients to understand that I care about all facets of their wellbeing and that I will be there to help them through every step of their cancer treatment.”
